me at my best mates wedding knocking them bandy

2 Questions:
1. I am the FEMALE Best Man for my friend’s wedding next month. I need to make two speeches because they are having two ceremonies. I just need a good ice breaker that will get a good laugh and not be lewd since the first ceremony is a religious one.
2. At the religious ceremony, it is more catered towards the groom’s family so I wanted to mentioned someone on that side who had passed away. The groom’s mother died a year ago and I wanted to mention her in the speech, like saying how she would be proud of her son and stuff like that and compare her a little bit to the bride. Would that be appropriate or no? I used to go over to their house a lot when I was younger so I’ve spoken to his mom a few times but I wasn’t very close with her. She was always a nice lady.
Thanks!

I’m British, but have been asked to give a best man’s speech at a French wedding. What form should the speech take (bearing in mind that half the guests will be British)?

So you’re the best man in a wedding. First of all, congratulations! You hold one of the top honors a wedding has to offer. Not only that, but you get the other honor of giving a speech at the wedding reception. If you’re not comfortable speaking in front of people, you might be a little anxious knowing that this coming up. Like everyone, you want to make sure you can present the best speech possible. Here are 3 simple tips to follow that will help you deliver an incredible and memorable speech:
1) Create Your Speech By Using An Outline
This might sound dumb (or very elementary), but doing this will give you an idea of how you can approach your speech. It will help you decide what you should talk about, what stories or ideas you can bring out, and what things you should keep to a minimum. By creating an outline, you will save yourself time when writing the actual speech itself.
2) Keep It The Right Length
What length is appropriate for a speech? Make it great, but not too short or too drawn out. A great speech should be able a good 5-10 minutes in length. Any longer and you will lose interest in the crowd. Shoot for somewhere in between the range above, and you’ll hold the attention of the crowd long enough to remember your speech.
3) Write Based On The Wedding Party
What do I mean by this? Is the bride/groom humorous, or more serious? Write your speech to the vibe of the wedding party. If they are humorous, try to include things that will make them laugh. If they are more emotional, include things that might be sentimental to them and touch their hearts. In other words, just go with the flow of their personality. Do that, and people will remember that speech forever!
